Turning over new leaves in Monticello

Posted

MONTICELLO, NY — Sixteen new trees will be planted on Broadway this fall as part of ongoing beautification in the Village of Monticello. Tom Manza of Manza Family Farm in Montgomery is donating the trees, which will replace those damaged by the harsh winter.

Installation is set for the week of October 13 as a joint effort between Manza Family Farm and the Village of Monticello DPW, with assistance from Sullivan Renaissance. DPW will also provide necessary machinery, reinstall the tree grates and mulch the new trees.

After the planting is complete, volunteers will be needed to assist with watering and basic care. Volunteers have been playing an important role in the beautification of Monticello since the New York State Department of Transportation completed its major renovation project on Broadway in 2011.
